Maybe they vibe-coded the support agent?

I feel that the US should step up their legislation game and make sure these companies can't retroactively make rules to steal their users data. I know it's trendy to hate the EU but their legislation actually protects the users, and not the companies interests.

this is quite dystopian

maybe they just wanted to fix a few outstanding bugs..

What's your guess, how much stock / cash he got?

(I also assume they gave him a ton of independence in R&D)

I'm pretty sure we all took down a production enterprise system once or twice. At InVision we had an incident every week, despite all the SOPs and safety nets. And that way waaay before vibe coding..

EVERY designer should read the `Design of everyday things`. It teaches the basics of good interface design.

I had to choose a smaller entertainment system so I can have knobs..

I gave up on "people should read things". Especially with AI now telling you how to think and what your final design should look like, I would be at least happy if they did some test of their own design and criticize it constructively.

Just put a "designer" in one of these cars and let them drive in real life situations like:

- a wasp entering your car, while you're approaching the entrance to the highway

- a child suddenly appears on the street from behind an SUV so big you could barely see the sidewalk

- a traffic light, green for you, but red for the car coming straight for your door.

We're past the "happy path". Try real life shit in your tests and maybe we'll install less screens and more sensors to actually help you drive, instead of distracting you.

Saving someone's life should be more important than a dumb undeserved promotion because you digitalized the whole car.

withing ONE week, Microsoft one-sidedly decided to

1. increase the LLM usage by 20x in Copilot

2. add rate hourly (roughly 4 hours blocks) and weekly rate limits to models use in Copilot

3. introduce credit based billing where you can't roll over unused credits

4. and now inserts themself to the commits as co-author

Man, I really feel like they want us to hate them

Man, I feel old.

I've connected it with my vscode copilot and took it for a ride. I've tried both flash and pro. For a small POC flash was sufficient enough, quite fast, and dirt cheap. It did stop a few times (maybe latency issue?) but it did a good job. I used the pro to do some heavy lifting, planning, etc. and it did a fantastic job. I paid ~10 cents for a small proof of concept, that worked exactly how I prompted it.

For me, this is a real alternative after I cancel my github copilot towards the end of the month..

<rant> I feel like this is the classic tale of corporate greed. Startups should stay startups. From the users perspective, I always hated the fact that you are the product. They create a great software, give you nice things, you fall in love and start to use the software, even advertise it in your circles because it's soo good. Then they sell the whole thing with you and your bros for big buck, and the new management slowly start to squeeze all the money out of it to justify the purchase while ruining the product. </rant>
